While for earthquake hazard-related investigations, the use of remotely sensed data is an established … survey of the interdisciplinary conceptual literature dealing with the scientific perception of risk, hazard and … to assess earthquake risk. These include earthquake hazard-related analysis such as detection and measurement of …

risk assessment for large cities. We have interpreted high spatial resolution images, conducted field surveys, and utilized ….5 years across the city. We utilized a geographic information system to embed vulnerability and hazard maps as a step to … calculate risk for buildings and bridges along the Río Chili valley and two tributaries. A survey of ~1,000 buildings from 46 …
